  4. 3. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
    Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

    Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

  5. 4. Chip Management in Milling and Drilling of Ductile Cast Iron

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

  6. 5. Statistical Analysis and Modelling of Engine Oil Degradation

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Nils Bastiampillai; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : An engine oil has several important properties it must fulfil in order to provide efficient engine operation. In addition to damping friction by lubrication, an engine oil must be able to cool, protect against corrosion, dampen vibrations and clean surfaces from contamination, wear and residual products.
